The wedding was this afternoon, a very cold day in the
middle of January. It was windy even in the clearing in the woods and the
thermometer showed just a few degrees above zero. As we waited for the ceremony
to begin we huddled in small groups around numerous miniature bonfires and
caught up with friends we hadn't seen in too long. And perhaps met new ones.
There were hugs and smiles. Laughter and conversations.
As the shadows lengthened the groom and his groomsmen
arrived. The groom was there but his entire focus was fixed on a distant point down the path. Eager and anticipating. Before
long he slowly shook his head in amazement and wonder as his bride appeared. On
the arm of her father she came walking down the path and up the snow covered
aisle. There was no need for the audience to rise as the bride appeared. It was
a standing room only event.
The warmth of their love and the support of friends definitely transcended any chill. Words of wisdom were spoken, handwritten vows were shared, and rings exchanged. And then Mr. & Mrs. Eric Weaver were introduced to the world!
